Throwing dead fish over the side has got to be the dumbest thing ever to come out of fishery management. I think that if a boat goes over it's limit or there is by-catch the boat should be required to bring the fish in. The money from the sale of these fish will be turned over to either fund research or enforcement. The poundage will be deducted from the commercial catch quota for that state. Now you have given them a real reason to avoid by-catch and going over there limit.
